The mythical Fountain of Youth isn’t made of water, after all, but vodka — at least, according to Betty White.

The famously spry comic actress, who turns 96 today, gave good news to those struggling to make it through January by offering some sage insight into her longevity.

She told Parade magazine that she loves vodka and hot dogs, “probably in that order.”

She may be on to something — a recent study found that adults who were moderate drinkers were more than 20 percent less likely to die early of any cause.

White added that she’s also made it through more than nine decades by embracing optimism

No carbs, has some protein, and no additives, so why not?..............

Are you replacing the vodka or the hot dogs?

[Truth29]

Of Vodka.

[Red Badger]

The dogs..............

Though I am more than enough younger to Betty White, I do share her love for Hot Dogs, especially those that used to be sold at ball games.

Many of those beloved Dogs sold, today are getting a bit two "granola" for my tastes today.

Since I have no clue as to her political preferences, I must conclude that she is one of the “good” ones, who keeps it to herself. Keep it that way, Betty, live long(er) and prosper!

[Leep]

I think she’s had a lot of hot dogs.

[Leep]

Bacon and beer.

You like classic style dogs? Try Hebrew national, or if in the Midwest try koegel.

Amen to that. The grass may be greener on the other side, but if you look down it's usually pretty green right where you are already standing. (That is unless it's winter and you're in Canada.)

It’s my birthday, too.
Did not know I shared one with Betty White.

[Leep]

Its just a matter of time before they discover high carbs are actually good for you

[AllAmericanGirl44]

Happy Birthday to you! Hope it’s a great day for you.

[Red Badger]

Some carbs are good.

Too many and you get fat and diabetes..............
